Bella Sante

If you grew up in Boston and are relaxation-inclined, it’s likely your first spa experience took place at Bella Sante. For starters, it’s one of the oldest day spas in the city (and currently a mini-empire, with two more locations in Lexington and Wellesley). It’s also far and away Boston’s most lauded sanctuary, regularly winning accolades for its massages, mani/pedis, tanning treatments and overall experience. But rest assured that Bella Sante never rests on its laurels— on the contrary, its enduring appeal lies in its commitment to treatments that are both top-shelf and cutting-edge, from hydrafacials to the Cloud Nine full body refurbishment.
